a cheaper effective option might be to wrap the manifold with header wrap.

Hey Aliga,
I wanted to coat the manifold, seems like it's gonna be hard to wrap that....
cuase of the irrgelar log shape.

But I did come across a product called "Bkack Satin"
And it's a do it yourself coating and good for 2000F. It self bakes on the manifold/exhaust when u run the.
engine.

I'm gonna give that a try, it's only $20 for a 4 oz can.
maybe need 2 cans to do the manifold, dp, midpipe...


Ken

nice, can you post the link! Some of these diy jobs, need you to sandblast or beadblast the header, which may pose another problem.

This is the company that makes it

http://www.techlinecoatings.com/

look under "Black Satin"

I read soem people have had pretty good results for reducing heat. well considering for a do it your slef kind of coating anyways. and a fraction of what JetHot would cost.

Only problem is I need some sort of paint gun to spray it.
I may opt for those rechargeable areasol cans (where u fill the can with whatever you want and compress it with a compressor, or the 50 cent tire air machine at gas station)
